    It's under investigation, could you imagine the carnage if they gave him a penalty.


  • Registered Users Posts: 841 ✭✭✭Muff_Daddy


    **** off stewards


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,614 ✭✭✭✭skipper_G


    It was a love tap for god sake, and I'm pro Leclerc. Stewards need to leave that alone

    Everyone saying Max is entitled to the corner, LeClerc is also entitled to the space on the outside.

    I wouldn't be at all surprised if Max loses the win, and he can have no complaints. Him punting LeClerc off ruined a great battle.

    If he gets a penalty I'm truly done with this motorsport

    Get the helicopter ready, it'll be the only way the stewards will get out of there if there's a penalty.

    That would be a highly controversial decision 2 races in a row.
    I can’t see that happening.

    Assume they need to make a quick call on this one?

    Quare drive by Max though. F1 needs that every week, an actual race at the front.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,734 ✭✭✭✭Inquitus


    Max could be in trouble there, he did turn into LeClerc when he didn't need to, I hope not, but would not be surprised.

    Very hard to argue against Verstappen being in the absolute top tier of drivers. Fantastic performance all through the weekend, makes a mistake and he does that to come back. Honestly reminds me of a video game race coming from the back.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,027 ✭✭✭H3llR4iser


    It's Verstappen, he won't be penalized guys...cash cow and all that...

    First race I've watched in ages. WHat a cracker!

    Yeah he seemed to straighten up after the first contact alright then made contact again.

    Charles is quite rightly pissed off.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,369 ✭✭✭Rossi IRL


    Reckon it will be a penalty

    It will be a concert of boos

    Another stupid move from Ferrari. Giving up track position to Hamilton. Meaning even though he has fast tyres. He'll have to overtake Hamilton on track and he's not been very good at that.

    Well done Vettel.

    I tend to agree.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,811 ✭✭✭✭flazio


    Yeah, I'll hold my hand up and admit I'm wrong about that.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,571 ✭✭✭✭Dont be at yourself


    Great racing. Hope the stewards don't rob Max.

    Max shouldn't punt others off the track to be honest.

    If he loses the win he has nobody to blame but himself.

    I disagree, but we will know either way in a few minutes.

    Nope, it is a sea of orange.

    Personally I would have preferred Charles to win.

    That race was tremendous, great racing, exciting finish, and oddly despite the temperatures very little talk of managing components, tyres etc;

    Max was excellent especially considering his bad start. Dissapointed for Leclerc, but his day will come. Good race from Norris, solid points finish today and well deserved. Serious questions will be asked about Gasly's future, that Hulk to Red Bull rumour is starting to seem less out there with each passing weekend. And shout out to Giovinazzi for his first F1 point, kept it clean and brought it home.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,523 ✭✭✭Sonny noggs


    Ridiculous if the result changes after the podium. Podium should be delayed in a situation like this, I know that will impact TV schedules but looks ridiculous if VER handed the winners trophy while then minutes later the result changes.

    How on earth did Gasly get lapped by his teammate?


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,614 ✭✭✭✭skipper_G


    Nice touch from Red Bull sending up the Honda guy


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,410 ✭✭✭Harika


    Hulk is dominated by Ricciardo who was dominated by verstappen who dominates gasly. Makes no sense to swap him in.
    Ocon, sainz, Norris or Russell sound like far better alternatives


  • Site Banned Posts: 12,341 ✭✭✭✭Faugheen


    Charles is fuming here.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,027 ✭✭✭H3llR4iser


    It's shocking really; Kvyat was essentially on the pace of Ricciardo and was fired for a couple of incidents. Just saying. Red Bull is doing a lot for young drivers, but it's also chewing and spitting out a lot of them - Vergne comes to mind, not to mention Alguersuari.

    Disappointed for leclerc and hope he gets the position back. But Ferrari don't deserve the win, so many blunders. They deserve a wake up call like this.
